NAME

6       abrtd - automated bug reporting tool's daemon.
7

SYNOPSIS

9       abrtd [-dsv[v]...]
10

DESCRIPTION

12       abrtd is a daemon that watches for application crashes. When a crash
13       occurs, it collects the problem data (core file, application’s command
14       line etc.) and takes action according to the type of application that
15       crashed and according to the configuration in the abrt.conf config
16       file. There are plugins for various actions: for example to report the
17       crash to Bugzilla, to mail the report, or to transfer the report via
18       FTP or SCP. See the manual pages for the respective plugins.

35

ENVIRONMENT

37       ABRT_EVENT_NICE
38           abrtd runs its post-mortem processing with the nice value
39           incremented by 10 in order to not take too much resources and keep
40           the computer responsive. If you want to adjust the increment value,
41           use the ABRT_EVENT_NICE environment variable.
42

CAVEATS

44       When you use some other crash-catching tool specific for an application
45       or an application type (for example BugBuddy for GNOME applications),
46       crashes of this type will be handled by that tool and not by abrtd. If
47       you want abrtd to handle these crashes, turn off the higher-level
48       crash-catching tool.
